Suggested context · 2 Peter 1:12–21

The selected passage is highlighted. Context is a study aid.

1:12Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.

1:13Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

Selected passage

1:14Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.

1:15Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.

1:16For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

1:17For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

1:18And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

1:19We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

1:20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

1:21For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
